DNP Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Unfortunately for me, there's no bone in my butt. ?? shepp shared a few of your secrets. I think I'm going to be doing the butt Friday and the ribs on Saturday. Will be doing just a dry rub on the ribs. I usually order dry over sauced when I have a choice.

DNP Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 May give that a try. I'll make sure I get the butt in early. I don't think the oak ridge rub is going to arrive in time, so I've gathered some fixins to make one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the oak ridge rub is going to arrive in time, so I've gathered some fixins to make one. Find you some Dizzy pig rub.....they gotta have a bbq store around with rubs....traeger has some... green mountain has a good pork rub....stubbs, john henry stay away from. that rod grey pellet envy has awesome rubs ipo and the next best thing....you said you thought you saw his....make sure butt is room temp before putting on smoker......you want some fat cap,but not real real thick...trim some of it then score it both ways like squares....i like my fat cap grill side down...some the other way but there is enough far running thru it doesnt need more dripping down into meat....the whole exercise is to render the fat down and meld it with the meat.....250 degrees ....200/203 internal on the meat....then wrap in foil and let it rest in a foam beer cooler with towels on top and bottom or in an oven thats not on...the rest part pays off in dividends and you will gain moisture and temp...I dont spritz with apple anymore because this rub is so great it seals in moisture while barking up real heavy....on a big butt injecting is nice with apple juice......use bout 1 tablespoon of veggie oil to rub down the butt so the rub stays on and melts into the meat Washheres some ribs.....done when their done 200/225 or 250 degrees grab the end of a slab with your new insulated gloved hand you are looking at the bend of the slab and looking for the cracks between the bones to start to split...then its done...and the boned ends have shrunk a lil....doesnt hurt to give a taste to check it out lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shepp Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Also when you do your ribs there's a membrane on the back it's a pita ass to pull off if you can't get it off score it along the bones it helps a lot wash, you ever try putting just a tin coat of sauce on your ribs about 30 min before they come off? That's how I do mine, love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyEJL Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 I still haven't built the cold smoke generator. have the 4" square tube still sitting here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Thanks Shepp. One of the shows I was watching recommended mustard, just plain yellow mustard for a bonding agent for the rub. Thoughts on that from the pros? They say it adds zero flavor, just holds the rub on. Can't remember which show it was-it was quite a while back.

Yeppers plain yellow mustard...the no name brand.....do it on all my ribs for sure....its just a bonding agent with no oil or taste...slather it on then put on the rubas for the silver membrane on the backside of the ribs...use a paper towel to grab it and rip it off...dunno why the paper towel works but it does....very rare but once in a while the meat packer will have done it....one time i hear char cussin and raising hell in the kitchen... cant get this damn double damn triple damn membrane off these ribs....she's pulling and cussin....go in the kitchen and there was no membrane Ha WashYep Shepp ive sauced em for the last 30 mins for a glaze..... ive also changed up my recipes....no more foil for the ribs or "Texas crutch" nope its all in the rub....we want a nice hard tasty bark so we dont foil or do the 3-2-1 thing...put em on and leave em be til the 'bend test' works....looked back at my journal I do foil em with some apple juice for 30/40 mins....being careful not to put the apple juice on top the bark....just lay some in the bottom of the foil and then tent it up bbq ideas http://amazingribs.com/ big boy butt bout 12 lbs mustard slather then the rub....ive gone to doing the rub bout an hour before smokin...

DNP Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Lid is down and has been since it started. Monitoring temps. The ambient probe on the thermo is showing a swing from 240-325. The digital thermo on the traeger is going from 230-275ish. Had to set the grill at 225 setting. Claims the smaller butt is at 157 already and the bigger one is 20degrees cooler. I'm going to swap probes in a little while to confirm that they read the same. Might be eating one for lunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be eating one for lunch. how long they been on and what was the internal temp when you stuck the probe in?....should not have any wild swings...my igrill prob will go back and forth one degree...i dont use the meat probes that come with the smoker...trust your digitals you bought......if you have multiple probes on the one you bought....take one out and take it outside the grill and see if it sez the same temp as the outdoors temp not laying on the smoker to check it out,but im sure its fine....but wild swings....hmmmmm........replace the spot where you have the probes,,,you may be in a fat zone or bone zone....lol a lil temp swing reading http://pelletheads.com/index.php?topic=34905.0Wash Edited January 1, 2016 by washguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
